Use your money to directly build justice, opportunity, and peace in your community. Gifts of stock are sold upon receipt and credited based on the value at time of sale.
Give via a Donor Advised Fund (DAF)
You can direct your giving vehicle to make a gift payable to the “Ella Baker Center for Human Rights” and send to our office at, Ella Baker Center Attn: Development Dept. 1419 34th Ave, Suite 202 Oakland, CA 94601.
You can also give directly from your DAF using the link below if your fund is with Schwab, Fidelity, or BNY Mellon.
Explore Resource Organizing
Resource organizing is a strategy we use to mobilize people — and their unique talents, time, skills, donations, ideas, and networks — to contribute to the Ella Baker Center’s work. You can activate networks of friends, families, colleagues, employers, favorite organizations, and local businesses to mobilize resources to support our programs.
